76 Cliff Road, Torbay

Redefining luxury on a grand scale, this iconic architectural marvel delivers. Occupying a vast 3850sqm oceanfront landholding designed to capture the unimpeded 270-degree ocean panorama from Whangaparaoa all the way to the beautiful silhouette of Rangitoto Island, this is the epitome of artful living. Private and secure, the expansive 550sqm (more or less) Spanish limestone clad concrete and masonry residence has been designed by esteemed architects Fearon Hay to maximise the Hauraki Gulf views through extensive glazing while providing shelter and seclusion. Natural light bathes the super-sized entertainer's open plan living space anchored by the exquisite kitchen with new Nero Marquina island bench, Poggenpohl cabinetry, premium Gaggenau and Sub Zero appliances. The scale and form of the living areas are simply breath-taking with double height ceiling which creates a true sense of space and grandeur. Double height glazing with sliding glass panels ensures an uninterrupted connection to the panorama and the exterior hosting terraces where you can follow the sun and appreciate the exceptional private position. A heated 25m lap pool cast to the edge of the elevated stone terrace impresses with its extensive water horizon. Sleeping accommodations are thoughtfully arranged for privacy and tranquillity and include a guest suite with kitchenette. Each bathroom is stunning and unique in design, sporting Boffi and Ritmonio tapware. As you would expect of a property of this calibre, only the most exceptional amenities have been selected. A Rotex system provides endless hot water for the home, basalt floors and pool. The home also comes equipped with a temperature-controlled 1400+ bottle wine cellar and triple internal garaging. There is no need to fight traffic to head to a bach when this resort-style estate is circa 20 minutes from Westhaven Marina and has beaches on its doorstep - Ladder Bay is a two-minute walk, while Long Bay and Waiake Beach are also a stroll away. This is an unsurpassed lifestyle masterpiece....
